Let’s be honest: this show has a schedule that’s more unpredictable than a London fog. They film all year round, but they love making us suffer. It’s their secret sauce.
We get a Christmas special in December. Then, we wait until January or February for the new series to start. It’s a tease. A glorious, habit-forming tease.

But think of the upside. It gives us time to re-watch all thirteen previous seasons. And to buy a fresh box of tissues. Priorities, people.
What to Expect in Season 14 (Spoilers? Maybe. Excitement? Definitely.)
We’re moving into the early 1970s now. That means bell-bottoms on the midwives. And probably some very questionable hair. The show’s creator, Heidi Thomas, has promised more social change.
We’ll likely see the characters grapple with the changing NHS. There will be new faces at Nonnatus House. And, of course, a dozen babies born in places where babies shouldn’t logically be born.
Expect tears. Expect laughter. Expect to yell at the TV when someone makes a silly choice. It’s the circle of Call the Midwife fandom.
How to Survive the Long, Dark Wait
First, embrace the re-watch. Start from season one. Cry over Chummy. Laugh at Sister Monica Joan’s thieving ways. It’s a self-care ritual.
Second, find a friend who loves the show as much as you do. Text them random quotes. Send them memes about Sister Julienne’s poker face. Share the burden.
Third, remember the cast. Jenny Agutter is a national treasure. And Miranda Hart is always a joy. You can follow them on social media for tiny crumbs of behind-the-scenes content.
Fourth, do not Google “Call the Midwife delayed” unless you want to spiral. Trust me. The internet is a scary place for fans with low patience.

Finally, make a countdown calendar. Decorate it with little baby booties. It sounds silly, but it works. It gives you a visual reminder that the drought will end.
